Bill Howe and Mick Shel­don, who are be­hind the project, said: “We are grate­ful to An­gling Trust of­fi­cer James Roche for his help. In the end it was a great feel­ing of achieve­ment and his­tory in the mak­ing and we’d love to see as many young­sters and their par­ents and fam­ily as pos­si­ble try fish­ing for free at our open days.”
